"Canada condemns the decision of the Iranian authorities to use violence and force against their own people... The government's reaction has been to silence the voices of its own people through brutality... The Iranian people deserve to have their voices heard, without fear of intimidation or violence. Canada condemns the use of force to stiffle dissent... The Government of Canada continues to support freedom, democracy, human rights and the rule of law in Iran."

-- Conservative Foreign Affairs Minister, Lawrence Cannon, June 2009
